Burmah-Castrol Refinery, Stanlow
Grid reference is still very approximate. If anybody knows better I would be delighted. Worthington Simplex steam pump. Removed for preservation but subsequently scrapped. All this kit was in the open.

Burmah-Castrol Refinery, Stanlow
Grid ref is approximate as this was a large site and has been long cleared. The picture shows the Dubs plant. This was basically all American kit with Worthington steam pumps and Erie-Ball rotative steam engines. Other areas had long rows of large steam pumps and there was a big power house with turbo-alternator sets and no working lights. This might be the first geograph inside an oil refinery.

The Erie-Ball engine, Burmah-Castrol Refinery
An approximate grid reference. The site contained three of these American built horizontal single cylinder steam engines driving horizontal pumps. This or a similar machine is in store at Astley Green Colliery.
